Hey guys. As of 5pm tonight my wife and I are officially in contract to buy our first home!! We are both really excited to get out of this basement. Our closing date was set for March 15th. That's the same day as my birthday. How's that for a good sign!
Also, I started working in my father in-law's pizzeria, training to be an owner one day. But still learning the basics as of Monday this week. After putting out over 500 resumes, going on only 4 interviews and only picking up 1 freelance project(for a very low wage), I've decided that no one is going to hire me right now as a graphic designer. With the economy the way it is, the decision to start this path was my best option. And my father in-law seems happy to have another family member in the business.
P.S. look for a home closing contest in the near future after I sort out the rules.
